Chicago-based fiction writer Bayo Ojikutu (47th Street Black, Free Burning) reads from his latest work and discusses the manner in which recent civic phenomena-gentrification, the city's bid for the 2016 Olympics and the emergence of President Barack Obama from the city's South Side-have affected how Chicago writers speak to the city's burgeoning global identity and its 21st century aspirations.
